Cork Midsummer Festival is one of Ireland's leading international multi-disciplinary arts festivals.

It has developed an international reputation for presenting work in unusual and surprising locations, as well as in the city’s many well-appointed arts venues. Over the past 15 years it has become a catalyst for the development of emerging arts practice in the city, presented a wide range of ambitious and acclaimed arts events across disciplines, and developed pioneering international projects involving collaborations between Irish and international artists and organisations.
